Sony Reader at Amazon
Amazon is selling Sony Reader and calling it an LCD:
"E-reader 6IN LCD Portable Dark Blue E-book Approx 170 Pix/inch" They don't specify if it is a 500 or 505. Where's the Kindle? |

I don't think you really just what a significant discovery you've made. It's a 505, it's in stock, and it's available for international sale.
You've just made a lot of people very happy - well done! They have both the blue and the silver models available. |

<Sigh>
Just tried to order one and got the message "this item cannot be shipped to international addresses". Oh well, you had me excited for a minute or two at least |

Congrats to our overseas friends!
Is this a direct Amazon sale or a Z-shop? I'm betting the latter... |

... but only, it seems, if you live in the US. I've sent an e-mail to customer service to ask them what the problem is.

Sorry if I caused an momentary international flurry. My point was they had no recognition of E-Ink.

They use the word "LCD" in the product title, but correctly call it "eInk" in the description that follows.
